It will be a reward that will keep on giving for several weeks, so make sure you check in once in a while, so you don't miss any of the renders.
Today we start with one of the renders from the order by user Isabella's Lover.

It's the final post of 2021! I hope you've had a great time over the holiday.
I've been working on animations, sounds, and music this week.
I've been making longer animations in general for the episode and a higher ratio of SFW (safe for work) animations than I normally do. I really enjoy i...

During the recent release, you helped me reach several patron milestones, and today I want to start the first step of the Patron reward that I have in mind.
The reward is a Custom Render set, much like I do for the highest tiers on Patreon, but for this particular set, every patron will be a part of what gets ordered, and every patron will receive the full set after I have produced it. 2021-12-09 14:41:25 +0000 UTC View Post

Since Being a DIK - Season 2 will be sold as a product on Steam soon, it's time to update my Patreon tier rewards. I must do this as I need to keep prices fair for all customers.
Because I have released several products, this becomes increasingly harder to keep affordable, as Patreon tier prices would shoot up with every product I release. And I don't want that. Patrons should never be pu...

Post-release information
This last week was insane in so many ways. It was the most hectic and fun release so far. There are always going to be problems during releases, but it went relatively smoothly despite some hiccups.

It was an intense week. The last percentages of work on any update always mean a lot of work.
And since it's the final update of the season, the workload has been even more significant than usual.
I have managed to narrow down the checklist further.
